Siha

The chibi maker is just TOO adorable to handle, thank you for posting it! Siha's isn't as clean because I refused to leave her hair that bright color they had but I think I did the best I could on that. Aaaaaaaand Taiga!

(Redacted) Just ignore this please.

*Pets the Kendha'to Kitty smugly*

Kitten and Pup versions of Siha, I think the puppy fits her better honestly. Ha ha. Kitten and Pup versions of Taiga as well! I like them both equally. ;---;

"..........." This is what happens when you promise people lessons and then disappear Askier. They hunt you down. :bomb:

I read they were adding a hug emote sis, we are going to need that. We really are, until then tons and TONS of pretend hugs will happen!

OH MY GOD ERIK!!! D: We missed you, and were worried! I'm glad to hear things got sorted out but sorry to hear about your episodes. I hope you're getting well quickly and getting plenty of rest, we'll look forward to seeing you on the game again when you're feeling up to it!

The Ixal's words were harsh and his rigid resolve even worse, the beastman didn't seem any less unruffled by her compliance and she swallowed as he crouched but her mouth seemed to have gone dry. The mere touch of the captor sent a shudder through her, not simply because he was Ixal, but because she knew that whatever intentions they had for them were dark. The prick of his claw against her skin had her chin rising just as he wished and her large violet eyes caught the misty gaze of their captor with almost glassy fear, she was afraid but more for the others than herself, she didn't want them to be hurt. Anything was better than that. She didn't dare nod with his claw pressing to her jaw, "I-I understand" she whispered quietly, fervently, if that was the price of his defense then so be it. When his tone shifted she could practically taste the poison in it, no matter how friendly he tried to sound she had been subject to this trickery many times before and her pride stung, it was always her and maybe before she would have fallen into the trap but she knew there wasn't any friendliness here. She couldn't glare though, not even show a scrap of rebellion, so she swallowed and forced some sort of relief into her figure as though she undoubtedly believed him. Meanwhile her thoughts raced, she didn't want to give up the others who had disappeared into the trees, but there wasn't any way they could have missed the sound of the scuffle at this point. The others would think she was a coward and her heart raced at that but she swallowed her pride, hopefully they would understand, and hopefully the other two passengers were long gone by now or at the very least not in the direction she was going to point the Ixal. "I..." she stammered her words carefully, her eyes widening with misery as she looked at the Ixal and a bit of fear, "t-they..." finally she forced defeat into her tone. "They went that way...earlier" no doubt she'd pay if they found out she was lying or wrong, but her finger pointed in the direction of the slope that Clover and Andre had gone down, but her direction was much farther south than they had gone. "It looked like they might have been circling back towards Thanalan for something" she mumbled and glanced to the others as best she could with forced guilt in her eyes, she would plead with them later if need be. Finally she forced her eyes back up to Nezul and waited with baited breath to see exactly what the Ixal would accept of her explanation. No doubt he'd send scouts out but hopefully the two Hyur had heard and were gone by now, a few precious moments ticked by as she thought of more distractions but she couldn't delay his orders once he gave them and maybe the other Ixal would move without them anyway.

Clearly Otto is taking 'most interesting man' status, the screenshots were lovely and I am jealous of all the fashion! I, for one, welcome our new fuzzy-eared overlords. Soon all of you will think this way! Mwahahaha!

S'imba went down and her breathing oddly slowed, her eyes narrowing in on the pain in the Miqo'te male. The anger in the Ixal that towered over him with the bow. When the blonde male began to taunt his would be killer, of all things, she took purposeful and quick strides forward and an authority rang in her tone that she didn't expect, "No!" Startled she paused and then rushed forward, falling to her knees in front of S'imba and shielding him as best she could with her own lithe figure. "P-Please" she added and her demeanor shifted as she looked up at the Ixal, she sounded pleading and submissive, hoping that it would calm his anger. Did it sicken her to have to be that way, oh yes, but it was for good cause. "D-Don't kill him, please. H-He's not useless, I can heal the leg a-and make sure he cooperates. Just let him live, I'll let you bind me, no resistance" she promised but didn't offer her hands just yet. She carefully shifted under the Ixal's gaze, hoping he wouldn't just toss her aside and kill S'imba, withdrawing her gloves she willed the contact with his skin not to trigger her visions. That was the last thing that any of them needed. Aether rushed down her palms where she pressed them and into the wound, it wouldn't fix it completely but it'd mend it enough for him to walk and for it not to bleed while it healed. Her violet eyes glanced to the wound but then they moved up to keep a steady gaze into the other Miqo'te's eyes while she silently prayed her could understand her motives. We need you..please...just for now, she pleaded silently, her gaze burning with intensity until her healing was done and she removed her hands. The other two Hyur, they had left, if they weren't dead then they would send help and even if they were there was no way that her friends wouldn't notice she was gone. She hoped. She only had to keep herself and now the two others alive until somehow they could escape, she could do that, I can do this. Pulling her black gloves back over her fingers she turned again on her knees to the Ixal and held her hands up, "He c-can walk, but please, we won't be any trouble now" she soothed and winced, almost expecting a blow.

Went ahead and just paid Marina for my commission so I won't forget. ^^

[video=youtube] Taiga ^ Still working on Siha's currently.

Taiga in her usual retreat spot. I liked the screen despite the stupid clipping tunic that I removed. >.>

Siha watched in horror and awe as S'imba refused to yield to the Ixal despite the clearly overwhelming odds. Her heart sank however because even as he laid three clearly low, she could see more muster up to take their place, she'd be surprised if they didn't kill him, and he was doing this for what? Pride and to protect her. Guilt twisted in her stomach, she shouldn't have spoken to them, she should have let them take her immediately and this wouldn't be happening, then he might have stayed back and not thrown himself into danger. Always a liability, that was what she was. She ground her teeth, watching him as she stayed low to the ground, he wasn't going to die for her. She wouldn't allow it. The girl's violet eyes jumped between the Ixal, seeking out any of them that looked to be the smartest or even reasonable. If she had to she'd willingly give herself up to save this strangers life because he'd shown the same regard for hers and the others still present. But she had to wait for the opportune moment, if and when they downed or subdued him then she could make her case for his life and not a moment sooner.

She never made it to the cart just as she'd predicted that she wouldn't, half way there the Ixal descended on the helpless passengers. She ground to a halt, ducking as an arrow slammed into the cart and crossing her arms over her head, her cowering was momentary however as she scrambled back from the Beastmen to try and put some distance. When they bore down on the driver, intimidating him her eyes widened and her heart sped, they were going to let him go? Was he in on this whole thing? What could the Bestmen possible want with all of the passengers? That last thought was more frightening than the others, she could only imagine exactly what the horrible birds would do with them and none of it was anything good. Her eyes jumped between each of the beastmen closest to her as she back away slowly, she wasn't going to be able to break the lines they'd formed even running into the forest was dangerous with an Archer on watch. The fact was only driven home as she watched the horror unfold with the driver, his run and then tumble down the hill as an arrow embedded itself deep into his back. A small whimper escaped her at his death and she wrapped her arms over her chest to curl her fingers against her arms. They were quickly advancing towards her and she squeezed her eyes shut, without her grimoire she wasn't sure she could fend them off, even with her fledgling pugilism... Speaking of pugilism, her eyes jumped open at a scuffling of feet, she couldn't just close her eyes and die. She refused to. Surprise replaced her defiance, her body uncurling slowly as she straightened and stared at S'imba in mild shock. "W-What are you doing?" she called to him but it was in concern now, they'd kill him if he wasn't careful. Her own hands balled into fists and her figure shook lightly, wavering in indecision.

I guess this means Meyla was right all along, I now dub thee Panty Sniffer officially!

...officially on my sh!t list. Please. Mister Kiryuu. Tear down this wall picture. Dem paparazzi. Mmm mm mm.

Nothing spectacular as usual but it was nice to have the cousins alongside each other at such a pretty time! The last one was just funny to me. >.>

The task itself wasn't so bad and though she knew she'd be cleaning mud off of her arms and some of her coat for a few hours when they returned she did the moving with a light hum. She didn't notice the young woman was gone until the other Hyur, a blonde man, apologized to everyone and took off after her. Concern, even for a stranger, rose in Siha's chest but a quick look between her task and the direction of the two had her choosing the former as the most important. The blonde man seemed to know the girl, so it was likely he'd be able to retrieve her just fine, and hopefully when they got back the debris would be cleared if herself and the Lalafell gentlemen kept at it. The forest was silent around them, something that made the girl pause, she might have been naive to the workings of society but nature was something that was entirely familiar. She was a Moon Keeper after all, and her clan had lived and hunted just like any other traditional family before she'd broken from them. The silence was a red flag and the blonde found her ears slicking back and her eyes widening as she looked around, something was wrong. It wasn't identifiable what it was but something was causing the forest to still, her ears were back up in a flash and she listened for anything that was out of place, her body stiff as she cradled the sticks and her tail wrapping around her leg. She heard it, a faint noise, but one that rang clearly to her all the same. Steel grating against steel as it left its casing. She dropped the sticks, everything in her body screaming at her to run but one look towards each of the remaining passengers glued her to the spot. She couldn't leave them to face whatever was about to descend on them alone, good fighters or not they could get hurt, the though made her wish she'd grabbed her crook from the cart and she eyed it. Her bag was there, her Grimoire, maybe she could make it. She suddenly darted towards the cart again, but she wasn't going to make it, she could already hear whatever it was making their way out of the woods towards them. There were many.

Okie dokie. ^^ Will do! I'll put you on the waiting list. <3 Yay thank you! :surprise:

Aww missed out on this one! When you open back up let me know because I'm definitely interested in the Bust Sketches with color! 8D

...... Ahahahaha!

Not Ken, though. Not a soft spot to be found. Nope. Suuuuuuuuuuuuuure.

Even Taiga has her soft spots, but she'll never tell anyone about them.~

((Taiga: "Aww isn' that cute, old man has a friend now! Careful girl, he creeps!")) Lol, it's a cute shot! Siha: "This is why no one ever talks to me..." Sad Taiga.
